A lyrical tribute to BMC

Okay, I'll post up some materials from my MRP shortly, cause I'm done! But first I wanted to just put some lyrics on the page, cause why not.
Presenting: "A Tribute to BMC" to the tune of Paul Simon's Kodachrome (YouTube below, if you're not in the know, and if you are, you can still hit play and sing along). //comments (not lyrics) prefaced with double slashes.

A Tribute to BMC

When I think back on all the stuff I learned in grad school //*ahem* stuff
It's a wonder I can think at all
And though my lack of fine art knowledge
Hasn't hurt me none
I critique the paintings on the wall

Bee Em Cee-ee-ee //This is phonetic
You give us those nice bright colors
You give us the research methods
Makes you draw everyone's anatomy, oh yeah //Provided they stand still
I got a Mac computer //I don't, I have an ASUS, Corsair, Lian Li, Intel, Windows PC
I love to use the Photoshop
So summer, don't take my BMC away //Or do, this is just a song

If you took all the art I made
When I was younger
And some of it looks decent, don't you think? //Operative word: some
I know they'd never match
My sweet communications
And everything looks great in pen and ink //Hyperbole

BMC //This sounds the same as the phonetic spelling above
You give us that final gather //Ambient occlusion would've been great, but... syllables
You give us the verts of Maya
Makes you put particles in all your shots, oh yeah
I got Adobe software //A lot.
I love to break the picture plane
So summer, don't take my BMC away
